kengiczar I'm glad my build is going to be put to some good use against your friends. Zedruu the Pretty Good-Hearted (no video yet) is my version that I feel is a more classic Zedruu the Greathearted than you would like to build. BUT let me convince you of a few spectacular interactions.

Homeward Path + Perplexing Chimera : I get to take a spell I want every turn. As long as you are running homeward path consider ... Gilded Drake + Homeward Path or Feldon of the Third Path + Gilded Drake or Gilded Drake + Mimic Vat

I also think Akroan Horse earns a spot.

I would consider cutting the Ranger of Eos and some of the one mana creatures for blue creatures with better card advantage like Mulldrifter. I also like creatures like Thada Adel, Acquisitor which is an attacking utility creature. Or Chasm Skulker.

I would also cut Agrus Kos, Wojek Veteran: gets weaker with more colors, Angelic Skirmisher: fun card but high mana cost, Archangel of Tithes: Oppressive color requirements. Speaking of which, color fixing and ramp will be harder now. I was skimping in my build. Cutting Knight of the White Orchid for better fixing will be necessary.

This still leaves a lot of the deck you want up in the air but finding all of the right cards for each slot will be fun. Thanks for the question; it was fun to muse over.
